"Histoire de l'Église, écrite par Théodoret. Traduite par monsieur Cousin, président en la Cour des Monnaies. Tome IV" is part of a significant historical work authored by Theodoret, commonly referred to as Theodoret of Cyrus. Theodoret, a prominent 5th-century bishop and theologian, wrote extensively on the history of the Christian Church. His comprehensive work, often translated as "Church History" or "Ecclesiastical History," spans from the rise of Arianism in the early 4th century to the year 428. This translation by Monsieur Cousin, president of the Court of Monies, makes Theodoret's valuable insights accessible to a wider audience. Volume IV delves into specific events and theological controversies, providing a detailed narrative that offers profound insights into the development of early Christian doctrine and the church's political and social context. Theodoret's writings are an important source for understanding the early Christian church's history and its interactions with the Roman Empire, and this translated edition is noted for its accuracy and scholarly rigor.
